-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Improving performance when low on memory

Cristy,
    If you'll recall back when we were working on achieving dual channel 
mode for your system, you ended up with the two new 1GB sticks plus the 
older two 256MB sticks, for a total of 2.5GB of dual channel memory.  I'm 
now wondering if the two smaller sticks are causing this video editing 
bottleneck you're experiencing.

    When you get a chance, see if you can wrestle that cover off one more 
time to remove the two small sticks (they're the ones currently in slots 2 & 
4).  then run your editing program.  If it seems that it's running better 
without the extra 512MB of RAM, leave those sticks out and just run the two 
new ones permanently (or until you replace the system, which you said 
probably wouldn't be too long).

Peace,
Gman
